Connection to MYSQL, personal gateway
Hi,
I was publishing a report that is using a connection to MySQL as well as a dynamic source (which I know does not work with PBI Service, but i used relative path and that worked in PBI Desktop too, so it should be okay).
When I try to update the dataset, i got the error message:
"Failed to update data source credentials: MySQL:
Authenication to host "xyz.com" for user "abc@mysqlabc" using method "mysql_native_password" failed with message: SSL connection is required. Please specify SSL options and retry."
MySQL does have SSL-encription enabled.
When I configure the connection in PBI Service, i use the same credentials as i do in PBI Desktop. I can only use "authentification method" basic and Windowswithoutimpersination.
Privacy Setting is set to Organizational.
Any hint for me? I do not see anything configured wrongly.
Hi NovaBI
I would suggest making sure you are using the ODBC connection.

Hi NovaBI
You would have to change it in the advanced editor
You could do this using Tabular Editor which could be quicker.

I experience same issue on PowerBI service. It is not even on the refresh, error appears when I try to edit credentials for the source. I also tried to configure the ODBC connection though get an error : SSL connection error : unable to get private key...
Not sure how to proceed with this.
